Carwyn Cellars

A bottle shop, craft beer pub and beer garden all in one — and did we mention the food trucks? Thornbury stalwart Carwyn Cellars has been a Northside favourite for over a decade, and it's not hard to see why. Stop by this High Street hangout to browse a wide yet thoughtful selection of craft beer, wine and spirits. Beers range from locally made labels to hard-to-find and globally renowned ales, while the wine room features a constantly evolving selection of vintages tasted and handpicked by staff.

The venue also doubles as a great spot to sit down over a frothie or two with mates, thanks to a rotating 28-tap craft selection and cosy, astroturfed beer garden. If you're after something a little stiffer, the back bar boasts over 300 whiskies, gins and more, while the wine list changes daily. You can enjoy your drink with a bite from the in-house food truck, which hosts an evolving roster of local chefs regularly.

Carwyn Cellars also has a subscription service, which allows you to discover the ever-expanding local and international craft liquor landscape via curated booze packs categorised by frequency and your choice of booze.
